S and I just had dinner and Okemos' own Tuba Museum and International Cafe. They have some pretty good food at that Tuba Museum if I don't say so myself. Anyway, we were having a conversation about the recent string of super hero and comic book movies and this happened:
S: Superman can fly and he's got super strength and other super powers while Batman is just some rich guy.
Me: Batman's rich but he's super smart. He's a detective. That's gotta count for something.
S: Whatever. He's a rich guy and Superman is a "super" man. There's no comparison. They're not even in the same league.
Me: Well, there's the Justice League. That's kind of a league...that they're both in.

I think I ate there when I interviewed at MSU. is it mostly vegetarian? Or at least, very vegetarian friendly?
I also have to weigh in on the Batman v. Superman debate. Batman hands-down. He's hotter. All dark and tortured and broody. Superman is too wholesome and morally upright. And he wears skintight spandex in retina-searing colors, and a cape. BY CHOICE. Unlike Batman, who's cape is a gadget that enables him to glide around. What's Superman's excuse?
superman's cap is also his baby blanket sent straight from the planet krypton. those things ain't cheap so superman's getting a little extra mileage out of it.
there is a strange bit of synchronicity happening with this post and a post over at recon's blog.
Wow, I can't find the words to express just how disappointed I am in the both of you.

disappointed that i spelled cap instead of cape?
Ha! Imagine if Superman rocked a baseball hat made out of a Kryptonian baby blanket. That would be pretty weird.
No, it's the lack of respect for what makes Batman, Batman. Sure I'm a bit of a superhero nerd, but I think that shits real important.
